Section II Production Chapter 3 Loan Sizing Section II Production Chapter 3 Loan Sizing 3.1 Introduction This chapter contains the loan sizing requirements for the Section 232 Mortgage Insurance for Residential Care Facilities program. Each loan program has different criteria for calculating the maximum insurable loan amount. The sections below describe which criteria to use for each program, and how to calculate each criterion. The maximum insurable loan amount is the lowest of all of the criteria rounded down to the nearest 100 dollars. The Maximum Insurable Loan Calculation (Form HUD-92264A-ORCF) (MILC) is a required Firm Application exhibit and is used to calculate the Maximum Insurable Loan. 3.2 Underwriting Benchmarks for Section 232 New Construction, 232 Substantial Rehabilitation and 232/223(f) Loans Maximum Loan-to-Value Ratios (LTV) and minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratios (DSCR) are set by statutes and regulations. To mitigate risk, the following underwriting benchmarks have been established. Any submittals above the LTV or below the DSCR benchmarks require substantial justification and mitigation. Please note that the DSCR benchmark is calculated using the Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP). To qualify for the higher Non-profit benchmarks, the Owner-Operator must demonstrate a successful operating track record, significant project operating and management experience, and a solid financial track record. The minimum debt service coverage ratio is 1.45 for all project types with the exception of the 223(a)(7) and Section 232(i) programs, which require a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.11. Regardless of which underwriting benchmark is used, a Non-profit Borrower must establish a Residual Receipts account. Section 232 Handbook, Section II, Production, Chapter 3 Page 1 Max. Loan to Type of Unit New/Existing Units Borrower Type Value* SNF/ILU Both For Profit 80% SNF/ILU Both Non-Profit 85% ALF New For Profit 75% ALF New Non-Profit 80% ALF Existing For Profit 80% ALF Existing Non-Profit 85% SNF = Skilled Nursing Facility; ILU = Independent Living Unit; ALF = Assisted Living Facility 1. 3.3 HUD Eligible Costs The following costs are considered eligible mortgageable costs for all programs except for Operating Loss Loans (see Section 3.10) and the 232(i) Fire Safety Equipment Loan Program (see Section 3.11). The Lender must provide evidence of these expenses and must justify how they are reasonable relative to current market conditions. A. Eligible Mortgageable Costs 1. Existing Indebtedness. Section 3.13 describes eligible existing indebtedness requirements. (Eligible debt on Section 223(a)(7) transactions is addressed in Production, Section 2.10Q). 2. Interest on Existing Debt. Interest accrued on existing debt may be included in the determination of eligible debt. 3. Prepayment Penalty. The Lender must include the prepayment penalty that the Borrower is likely to incur at the time of closing, not at the time of the Lender’s underwriting. This may include the yield maintenance fee. 4. Interest Rate Premium (Section 223(a)(7) projects only). The Lender may apply proceeds from an interest rate premium on behalf of the Borrower to defray prepayment penalties associated with the existing mortgage note. The amount needed to pay off the existing indebtedness for purposes of MILC Criterion H must not include any portion of the prepayment penalty that is being paid from an interest rate premium. Criterion H of the MILC will automatically deduct the amount of the interest rate premium disclosed on the S&U tab of the MILC. No portion of the interest rate premium will go to the Borrower or any of its affiliates. Any unused portion of the interest rate premium originally intended to defray prepayment penalties must be deposited into the Reserve for Replacement (R4R) account for future project needs. Section 232 Handbook, Section II, Production, Chapter 3 Page 2 5. Initial Deposit to the R4R. This amount is determined based on a R4R analysis completed by the Lender and reviewed by ORCF. These funds are deposited into the R4R account at closing. 6. Existing R4R to Transfer. On Section 232/223(a)(7) and 232/223(f)(/223(a)(7) projects, the existing R4R balance must be transferred to the new loan at closing. 7. Estimate of Repair Cost (critical, non-critical and Borrower proposed). The Lender's estimated repair costs to be incurred by the Borrower. Associated architect’s fees, mechanical engineering fees, municipal inspection fees, and other similar fees may also be eligible. The Lender must provide evidence of these fees at the time of firm application and justify their eligibility. The contingency portion of the repair escrow agreement is not eligible. 8. Appraisal (including updates). Costs associated with completion of the Appraisal as part of the Firm Application submission. The Appraisal must be completed in compliance with the ORCF Appraisal Statement of Work (available on the Section 232 Program website). 9. Phase 1 ESA / Environmental Review. Costs associated with any third party reports required to comply with environmental review requirements. 10. Project Capital Needs Assessment (PCNA). Costs associated with completion of a PCNA for projects requiring a PCNA as part of the Firm Application submission. The PCNA must be completed in compliance with the ORCF PCNA Statements of Work for Section 232/223(f) and Section 232/223(a)(7) or 232/223(f)/223(a)(7) (available on the Section 232 Program website). 11. Financial/Placement Fee. The Lender’s fee limit is based on a percentage of the loan amount. The below table shows the limits for each OHP Section 232 Loan Program. The Lender’s legal fees are included in the fee limit. Yield maintenance fees are not included in the fee limits. See Section 3.14 for fee limits for bond transactions.

Park1 The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 dramatically but temporarily increased the mortgage loan amount eligible for insurance through the Federal Housing Administration. We use the implementation and expiration of these loan limits as a source of exogenous variation in the availability of FHA insurance to measure the impact on the overall mortgage market and con- ventional lending. We find that the introduction of higher loan limits increased the number of mortgages newly eligible for FHA financing, but that the expiration of those loan limits roughly six years later did not significantly decrease affected loan originations. Moreover, the degree of substitution between FHA and conventional market segments was lower in 2008-09 than in 2014, when substitution was nearly one-for-one. The smaller impact on the overall mortgage market and greater degree of substitution when the ESA loan limits expired may be explained by the return of a stronger conventional lending industry than existed during the housing crisis. 1 U.S.

  • Get a Glossary of Terms Used in the Title Industry
    GLOSSARY A Abstract Plant – A geographically arranged abstract plant, currently kept to date, that is adequate for use in insuring titles, so as to provide for the safety and protection of the policyholders. An abstract plant as further defined in Rule P-12 and as further provided for in the Insurance Code, Chapter 2501.003 and Chapter 2502, must include an abstract plant for each county in which a title insurance agent or direct operation maintains an office. Abstract of Title - A compilation of all the recorded documents relating to a parcel of land. Usually kept by the land owner and used as the basis for an attorney as to the condition of title. Still in use in some states, and in some areas of Texas, but mostly replaced by issuance of title insurance. Abstract of Judgment – A lien created by a statutory filing of a court judgment in the real property records. This lien, commonly referred to as an AJ (in Texas), attaches to all non- exempt real property of the person or entity that the judgment was against. Acceleration Clause (in a mortgage) – Specifies conditions under which the lender may advance the time when the entire debt which is secured by the mortgage becomes due. For example, most mortgages contain provisions that the note shall become due immediately upon the sale of the securing land without the lender's consent or upon failure of the landowner to pay an installment when due. Access – The right to enter and leave a tract of land from a public way. Can include the right to enter and leave over the lands of another.

Since 2010, the role of non-banks – a term commonly used to define firms unassociated with a depository institution – in the overall mortgage market has grown handedly. In 2014, non-banks accounted for over 40 percent of total originations in terms of dollar volume versus 12 percent in 2010.

    U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Office of Housing z Office of Single Family Housing The Guide to Single Family Home Mortgage Insurance www.hud.gov espanol.hud.gov Becoming a Homeowner Many people in the United States dream of owning their own homes, but few are able to pay cash for them. Many individuals and families who could not otherwise afford to own a home become homeowners with the help of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage insurance programs. FHA is a part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). One of the chief purposes of FHA is to help people obtain financing to buy their homes. This booklet can help homebuyers understand how they can make use of FHA mortgage insurance programs. It explains: • How FHA mortgage insurance works • Who can use FHA mortgage insurance • How to shop for a HUD-approved lender • How to apply for an FHA-insured mortgage loan • What restrictions apply to FHA-insured mortgage loans Buying a home is the biggest single purchase that most people will make in their lifetimes. Most people borrow money through a mortgage loan to buy a home. Some people reduce the amount of money they bor- row by making a large downpayment on the loan to buy a home. Persons who do not have money for a large downpayment may need the help of an FHA-insured mortgage to get a loan.

  • Download BB&T Statement of Facts
    ATTACHMENT A 1. Since at least January 2006, Branch Banking and Trust (“BB&T”) has been a Direct Endorsement (“DE”) lender approved by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”). As a DE lender with Lender Insurance status, BB&T is authorized by HUD to originate and underwrite mortgage loans on HUD’s behalf, including determining a borrower’s creditworthiness and whether the proposed loan met all applicable HUD requirements, without any pre-endorsement review of the mortgage application by HUD. 2. HUD required DE lenders, such as BB&T, to follow applicable HUD regulations and underwriting requirements in originating and underwriting mortgage loans for FHA insurance, including those requirements set out in HUD’s Handbooks and Mortgagee Letters.1 3. HUD required DE lenders, such as BB&T, to submit certain proposed FHA loan originations through a HUD-approved Automated Underwriting System (“AUS”) in conjunction with a tool known as Technology Open to Approved Lenders (“TOTAL”). According to the FHA’s TOTAL Mortgage Scorecard User Guide, TOTAL evaluated the overall creditworthiness of the applicants based on a number of credit variables. After a proposed loan was submitted, TOTAL would either: (1) approve the mortgage subject to certain eligibility criteria or other conditions, including conditions that the lender validate the information that formed the basis for TOTAL’s determination; or (2) refer the mortgage application for manual underwriting by the lender in accordance 1 The requirements referenced in paragraphs two through twelve of this document reflect standard HUD- FHA program requirements for Direct Endorsement lenders as provided in HUD’s Handbooks and Mortgagee Letters.

  • Section III Asset Management Chapter 2 Controlling Documents
    Section III Asset Management Chapter 2 Controlling Documents 2.1 Introduction The Section 232 mortgage insurance documents are the controlling documents which detail program requirements and obligations. These documents are comprised of contracts (Agreements), certifications, forms, and regulations. The documents discussed in this Chapter were published pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) and are available on the Section 232 Program website. 2.2 Regulatory Agreements Regulatory Agreement. The regulatory agreement is the contractual document under which the Borrower, Operator and, if applicable, the Master Tenant are regulated by HUD, as long as HUD is the insurer or holder of the mortgage. Therefore, depending on the Borrower and Operator structure, the project may have one or more of the following regulatory agreements: 1. Healthcare Regulatory Agreement – Borrower, or Borrower Regulatory Agreement (Form HUD-92466-ORCF), 2. Healthcare Regulatory Agreement – Operator, or Operator Regulatory Agreement (Form HUD-92466A-ORCF), or 3. Healthcare Regulatory Agreement – Master Tenant, or Master Tenant Regulatory Agreement (Form HUD-92337-ORCF). Depending on the date an FHA-mortgage was insured, the insured mortgage may have earlier versions of these documents, which do still apply in full force and effect, and this Section III of this Handbook does apply to those insured mortgages. If the Borrower and Operator are the identical legal entity, then that entity shall sign both the Borrower Regulatory Agreement and the Operator Regulatory Agreement. The regulatory agreement is recorded in the land records and thus is an encumbrance on the property. HUD will agree to release the regulatory agreement when the FHA-insured loan is paid in full, either at maturity or upon prepayment.

  • FHA-Insured Loans
    Module 6: FHA-insured mortgages Unit 1: FHA-insured loans MOD6-1_1FHA.CFM (4 MIN) UNIT 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES This unit will teach the student to: understand the Federal Housing Administration (FHA)’s purpose as a government guarantor of mortgages; summarize available FHA programs; and review basic underwriting standards for the FHA’s single family residence programs. THE CREATION OF THE FHA The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) was created as part of the National Housing Act of 1934 in response to the struggling housing industry following the Great Depression. Before its creation, only 40% of Americans were homeowners. This low homeownership rate was largely due to the limited short-term financing available, as most loans were offered with three- to five-year payment plans and required large down payments often consisting of 50% of the purchase price. Thus, only the very wealthy were able to purchase a home. [The Federal Housing Administration (FHA)/ Hud.gov] The FHA’s ability to assume the lender’s risk allowed home loans to be spread out over longer terms, meaning borrowers had lower monthly payments and greater access to mortgage funds. The FHA established two mortgage insurance programs; one for one-to-four-unit single-family residences (SFRs) and one for multifamily housing units. In 1965, the FHA became part of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). By allowing down payments as small as 3.5% of the purchase price, the FHA allows homebuyers who would otherwise not be able to afford the typical 20% down payment an opportunity to own their home.
